Abandoned Ranch Road

Wandering around with my pal Smitty,I spot a two track, almost completely overgrown..so, we follow it towards the mountain.

Lobo Valley, Texas

We can see at one time it was well traveled. Well graveled and it was partially fenced. It had heavy wooden fixtures on either side. Signs that a lot of people once used this Road

After some research,I believe it once led to the now closed off and private Van Horn Wells.

These photos are of a half buried old strong box.

My imagination went wild…was it from an old stagecoach…did some pioneers abandon it for some reason..???

We may never know!! But, wow, what a great find🤠

View of Lobo Valley from the Van Horn Mountains. In the center you can see the Gardens Oasis Campground.
Getting there steady and sure .
This is a great time of year to hike the mountain trails in the Lobo Valley..almost to the top!
